Rui should not want to resign with the Lakers… Who wants to be part of the Luka clown show? Never going to win a championship with that Circus act.
Rui went from one of the best finishers at the rim in both fg% and fga his first 2 years to one of the worst, that's ayton clogging up the paint for you
a year ago we were talking about Rui being one of the best cutters in the league
Lakers really don't have a say, Other teams are going to offer him more money, and they may know how to use him correctly, unlike the Lakers.
Great that lakers want LeBron
KEEP Rui!!!!!!
He don’t play d but at the right price 15-18 millions per year welcome back
Saw a trade proposal earlier that goes something like Rui for PJ Washington with a 1st rd pick and Lakers will also get Derrick Jones from the Clippers. If that's somehow possible then Lakers can recreate the 2024 mavs starting lineup with PJ and Jones Jr.
The lakers raved and raved about how they were building for the future. Punted LBJ/AD seasons for the future. Now the future here and I bet they’ll let rui go sign LeBron and lose him as an asset in a year🤣🤣
KEEP HIM! Let LeBron James walk
Wigs is a great defender, but his shooting is so inconsistent and his FT shooting is just average or below average. I’d keep Rui 100% Shooting is a problem already for this team!!!
I think he'll sign with miami or request for a sign and trade for wiggins
Should I stay or should I go now? If you Pay that twenty million!!? I'll be here for a zillion! So you got to let me know! Should I stay or should I go!
Who are you going to get at his money who shoots better ???, There isn't anyone, and he's gotten better on Defense, he moves his feet , he's no lock down defender but he's about league average, but his three point and top of the key shots are money.
Rui is good shooter, but defense is a questionable. It will be good to keep him as long as he does not demand too much money.
Rui has shown to show up when it matters and is our best consistent shooter. We need his size also
Hes to slow defensive not getting rebound hes inconsisntent not butbinwould rather take center
One way or another! The Lakers can’t lose him for nothing.
Team RUi! 🏀🇯🇵
Rui is worth at least 20 mil
Keep rui Marcus and Jackson and Luka everyone else can go
